On the other side, the Film Emperor and Gu Tianque exchanged a glance, and in the depths of both their eyes lay a thick, heavy dread.

It was the first time either of them had ever come face to face with Zhou Yuan.

Both were reincarnations of ancient Chaos Emperors, and both carried the same scent upon them.

The crucial thing was that the scent clinging to Zhou Yuan seemed, compared to the two of them, to be even richer and more pungent!

Whether it was the Film Emperor or Gu Tianque, both were proud and arrogant men by nature; under ordinary circumstances, it would have been utterly impossible for either to bow his head to anyone.

Yet at this very moment, facing Zhou Yuan, whom they had never met before, they had actually...

Wen Yan immediately went over and picked up her phone, but what she saw was not a message from Xie Jingchu.

It might have had something to do with Yuki Kiyomizu being a devoted player of the Naruto mobile game—his golden finger was a dueling arena.

Of course, she had no proof, so naturally she could not take the train; they say the best hiding place is right under the lamp, so she remained concealed in the capital, Jing City.

Xianhu Village was only a little over twenty li from the town, and some ten minutes later the police car pulled into the town police station.

Chi Ze seized the opportunity of dining with Sheng Yin and Shen Qingyan; though he was not terribly keen on sharing breakfast with Pei Zhiyan, when he saw Pei Zhiyan carefully peeling shrimp for Shen Qingyan, Chi Ze followed suit and began peeling shrimp for Sheng Yin.

Whenever Huo Yining came home from school, Lin Man could never wait to plunge him into the tense grind of working through test papers.

Sarutobi Hiruzen drew a deep breath and steeled himself inwardly; no matter how explosive the news that followed might be, he would be able to receive it without changing his expression.

In addition, she had plantain seed, hyssop, akebia, turmeric, corydalis and other herbs decocted together in water for her own consumption, which could move the qi and relieve pain.

She was still as magnanimous and kind as ever, just as she had been when she first entered the Liyang Prince's estate, bearing not the slightest grudge toward anyone—so moved was Fang Yi that she wept.

"The Great Song's Blade God is truly formidable. But why would he come to kill Temujin? Surely he does not mean to conquer the steppe. Hmm—if that is so, then we should submit to the Great Song and express our admiration for it. The Great Song is a nation of rites and propriety, and in that case it would be awkward for them to attack us." The chieftain of the Tatar tribe felt at once that he was terribly clever.

At the instant the Earth-Crouching Demon God was annihilated, the figure in the green robe and bamboo hat suddenly hurled his sword; a white rainbow pierced the sun, an eagle struck across the vault of heaven, and that blade-light swam like dragon and serpent between the real and the illusory—with a soft *puchi*, it sank into Kang Hong's body.

Thereupon the operator hurriedly adjusted the Hippocampus's heading and fired up the second nuclear power engine!?

Beyond his curiosity there was also a trace of worry; though he knew his leader would never provoke an enemy without a fighting chance, he was still unsettled by this unknown thing.

Xue Qikai placed the other tracker into Wang Yuan's hand; thank goodness he had held one back at the time, or he would not have known how he could ever face his own leader again.

Lin Junhong, lying on the ground, was suddenly startled by a series of noises! He could clearly hear many corpse-howls outside—whether or not they had caught the scent of blood within, they were furiously pounding on that tightly shut iron door.

"By the way, what kind of work are you doing in the group now? Before I left back then, I handed you over to Wang Xiang and told him to arrange a position for you. I've been away so long I have no idea how you've been getting on." Yue Ming changed the subject and began to inquire with concern about Li Ling'er's work.

Leaving the "Madman Detective Agency," Wei Renwu did not go looking for clues about the "Demon Sovereign" right away; he first had to go back and rest, and only begin the investigation the next day.

"Brother Tongxu, there's no need to give chase! He didn't come to kill us." With that, Tianjue stepped forward and pulled the arrow from the pillar; bound to its fletching was a letter.

Yet He Xuandu did not so much as frown, nor did he even activate his primary Domineering Body. His physique now stood at a full twelve points; without activating the primary Domineering Body, these rifles could not even wound him.

Shen Qianqiu paid not the slightest heed to what Xia Gonglian had said; he simply scooped up Tuan Tuan, sat down on the sofa, and began watching cartoons.

Though Mother Zheng wanted to kick up a fuss and make a scene, she could also see that Jiang Lan was not lying—she truly did not know where Zheng Yuan was.
